For the sanity of anyone who may want to read this, link to the print version: http://www.sdtimes.com/content/article.aspx?ArticleID=35058&...
They seem to be redirecting that url now. How spammy.
You can still click on the 'print' link at the top, formatting is MUCH easier to read.

This quote sold me on taking a second look at CouchDB:

"CouchDB has taken all that fun away. Things just work, we never have to see why something’s broken and not worry too much about scaling. This means we don’t have to hire more people to manage the site, which means we can’t show the investors and our customers that we are growing rapidly."

That is a pretty classic line. ;)
that website is fucking garbage.
